- the command code includes one or more codes allocated to commands which are defined in a related standard such as The International Organization for Standardization/The International Electrotechnical Commission (ISO/IEC) 18000-6REV1 with respect to conventional general signals such as the ACK signal. Also, the command code may include a reserved for future use (RFU) command or a proprietary command, which is not defined in ISO/IEC 18000-6REV1 but may be newly defined when necessary.
- a related standard such as The International Organization for Standardization/The International Electrotechnical Commission (ISO/IEC) 18000-6REV1 with respect to conventional general signals such as the ACK signal.

- URL uniform resource locator
- UPN uniform resource name
- the identifier indicates confirmation between the RFID reader 110 and the RFID tag 120 so as to confirm that the RFID reader 110 and the RFID tag 120 are dedicated to each other.
- the identifier is determined via a procedure to be described. In the procedure, when the RFID reader 110 and the RFID tag 120 start communication, the RFID tag 120 issues a random value in response to a query from the RFID reader 110 and transmits the random value to the RFID reader 110, and then, the random value, which is received by the RFID reader 110, is allocated to the identifier only when the random value does not collide with values allocated to other tags communicating with the RFID reader 110 so that an ACK signal is transmitted to the RFID tag 120.
- the command generating unit 111 allocates a value that is the same as the random value to an identifier.
- the command generating unit 111 may generate a command message not including a response format.

- the battery-assisted mode involves supplying power from a separate battery, and thus operating the RFID tag 120.
- an RFID tag is classified into an active type tag and a passive type tag.
- the active type tag uses a battery so as to supply power to a chip and to transmit a signal to an RFID reader.

- a semi-passive type tag uses a battery so as to supply power to a chip but, for communication, the semi-passive type tag producing electric power from an electromagnetic wave of an RFID reader.
- the command message including the response format allows information stored in a memory of the RFID tag 120 to be easily retrieved by using a relatively small amount of power from the RFID tag 120 (corresponding to the passive or semi-passive type tag) that operates in the passive mode in which power is produced from an electromagnetic wave of the RFID reader 110. Therefore, if the RFID tag 120 operates by using its own power via the separate battery so that the RFID tag 120 is in the battery-assisted mode, the command message including the response format may not be used.
- the data extracting unit 114 extracts additional data according to the response format with respect to the response message received by the response receiving unit 113.
- the tag random value receiving unit 115 receives a random value issued by the RFID tag 120, in response to a request such as a Query requesting to start communication between the RFID reader 110 and the RFID tag 120.
- the command generating unit 111 allocates a value that is the same as the random value to an identifier and transmits an ACK signal including the identifier, and the RFID tag 120 transmits a response signal in response to the ACK signal. By doing so, an inventory in an RFID is formed.

- the additional data may be URL or URN information on a UII.
- the data inserting unit 124 inserts the additional data into the response message in response to the command message, according to the type of additional data, which is indicated by the one or more bits of the response format in the command message.
- the response transmitting unit 125 transmits the response message with the additional data to the RFID reader 110.
- the RFID tag 120 may further include a tag random value transmitting unit 126 or a state changing unit (not shown).

- the state changing unit changes a state of the RFID tag 120 into an ACK mode.
- the ACK mode indicates a state in which the RFID tag 120 is recognized by the RFI D reader 110 so that the RFID tag 120 is identified as the identifier of the command message, that is, the RFID tag 120 is identified as a value that is the same as the random value transmitted from the tag random value transmitting unit 126.
- the identifier is inserted into messages to be exchanged between the RFID reader 110 and the RFID tag 120, and communication between the RFID reader 110 and the RFID tag 120 is performed by using the identifier.

That is, by using this indicator, whether the value of the sensor data satisfies a condition desired by a user of the sensor may be indicated.
- the identifier 203 is issued by a tag that receives a query request from a reader and thus is singulated.
- a 16-bit code is used as the identifier 203.
